Temperate bacteriophages were induced in and released from isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae using mitomycin C. Various specific indicator cultures were tested for providing clear plaques after phage infection. Specific lytic mixture of bacteriophages was prepared using the induced, modified and laboratory variants of phages. Under laboratory conditions, the mixture eliminated all isolates from the tested collection of microorganisms. The restriction barrier of some bacterial isolates to bacteriophage infection was overcome either by UV irradiation or in vitro modification of bacteriophage DNA with specific methyltransferases. Conjugative R plasmids, capable of replication in G(+) and G(-) bacteria, were detected and isolated from S. aureus and S. agalactiae antibiotic-resistant strains.
